Hi,

I did one try with cleaning-foam for the carpet. I sprayed it into the boots, then rubbed hard. After a time you can remove it with a vacuum-cleaner. After all I used a deo for coches and textiles and so on. Worked well. I have to admit that it were not my boots ). I did not want to macine-wash them, because they are through, if it takes to long to get them dry. Have fun ))

Well,
I have tried this product for three days now, it works great, cost me about euro 30,00. Takes away that ugly smell of my sweating feet which I leave behind in my liners (the smell of course not my feet) and also dry my liners in no time (at night). You are not dependable at other facilities like shoe dryers in your hotel.

Hi Tommasso, yes I bought that two blue ones in a paper box
DZ-Dryzone:
Just take your footbeds out of your boots, place a Dryzone in each boot, shoe, glove, hat, helmet or kitbag. Anything you want to dry. You don't need any electricity at all.

You can regenerate a Dryzone if it feels damp or become less effective after several times of use. Just put them in a oven or microwave or place them on a domestic radiator for at least 30 minutes, after heating the dryzones beware of your hands, DRYzones will become very HOT.

Looks like I am a salesman for this product, but I am not

Hi,

today i washen my inner boots in the washmaschine at 30C and without centrifuge. Thus my boots are totally wet now coming out of the machine but they look ok, no deformation and the smell is fantastic . They are drying now and i will let you know further results when they are dry and ready to use. But for now i would say its ok to machine wash the inner boots.

Keep you updated.
